January 30-February 5, 2003 beat box Once again, it's yet another week of bangin' beats, double-time lyrics and straight-up hip-hop no-chaser parties! In a climate where parties and promoters bite the dust before the fliers even make it out of the printer, The Ill Vibe Collective marks the all-important two-year anniversary of their biweekly jam, the Bodyrock. By bringing in heavyweight party-rockers, DJs Prince Paul and Avee, it's guaranteed there will be a long line at the door! And let's not forget the men that make it happen: Statik, Panek, Phillee Blunt and Lil' Dave. Bravo! Sat., Feb. 1, 10 p.m.-until the fuzz come knockin', $7, Aqua Lounge, 323 W. Girard Ave., 215-769-5114. The Lyricist Lounge Club Series is back for the second time with another banger: Dead Prez, Killer Mike, Youngbloodz and Philly's own Tangled Thoughts. Ain't heard Dead Prez in a minute, eh? Well now's the time. Killer Mike? Yes, this ATL-alien is down with OutKast and about to drop his debut on Aquemini Records. Cop those tickets early and save five bones for that expensive drink you'll want once the show starts! Or even better, log on to www.goodiegoodie.com and try to win your seats! Now that's frugal. Sun., Feb. 2, 8 p.m., $10-$15, The TLA, 334 South St., 215-336-2000, www.electricfactory.net. Miss Erykah Badu sashays into town for an intimate show at The TLA. Let's just hope she doesn't shout-out her manny-man, Common, as much as he did her at his TLA show in December! Enough! We know y'all are in love, we know! Mon., Feb. 3, 8 p.m., $39.50, The TLA. And after that, cure those winter blues at The Remedy as they continue to pile on the special guest DJs. This week's favorite hip-hop Monday night soiree boasts DJs Tat Money and Low Budget on the ones and twos. With Cosmo always on board for the assist, RX devotees will be banging on the walls all night long. Mon., Feb. 3, 10 p.m.-2 a.m., free before 11 p.m., $5, Fluid, 613 S. Fourth St., 215-629-0565. Any money left in your pocket? Run out and buy the new Jam Master Jay Ultra Star tribute $100-a-pop Adidas sneakers. There are just 5,000 pairs available at www.adidas.com. All of the proceeds are being donated to Jam Master Jay's Scratch DJ Academy.
